Happy Fall Everyone,
Thank you all for the special birthday wishes and gifts. I felt very spoiled and loved being here on my birthday to celebrate with everyone!
Conferences: I look forward to meeting with all of you the week of Oct. 7th for
conferences to discuss your child and the progress he/she has made. See you at your appointed time here in our classroom.
Book Fair- During conference week, our library is turned into the Scholastic Book Fair so please so down and enjoyed purchasing some great books for your child and gifts for friends.
Field Trip- Thank you for sending in your child's permission slip and donation. We are looking forward to our first field trip of the year. Sadly, we still need drivers for the field trip so please take a look at your schedule and see if you are able to help.
Language Arts- RTI program started this week, was very successful and everyone enjoyed it!
We will read Pearl's First Prize Plant this week which will give us the opportunity to predict and infer while learning the naming parts of a sentence, words endings and short i words. Practicing these skills is something we highly recommend.
Word Wall Words: Each Monday, we will put 5 new word wall words
on our Word Wall. Here is the updated list of word wall words
that are on our
Word Wall now: a, and, are, about, as, at, an, all, because, be big, by, can,
did, down, do, for, first,
friend, from, find, go, have, he, here, his, had, him, her, has, how, I,
in, is, it, if, know, like, little, my, me,
made, many, most, make, more no, not, nice, of, on, one, once, play, said,
see, she, that, the, they, this, to, up, when, where, why, was, want,
with, who, what, you. Helping your child learn these words will be a
huge support to
their reading. Once they know these words by sight, they can work on
spelling
them on their own as they are the most frequently used words in first
grade.
Flash cards are a great way to practice. Some children even have their
own word
walls in their rooms. It is great to have a Word Wall at home too and
add the five new word wall words to it each week. This week's word wall words are going to be.... many, down, know, about, first
Math: We will be working in Chapter 6 which focuses on subtraction
fact strategies. We will be discussing all the different strategies to
use when taking some objects from a group of objects. We will give the
children time to verbalize what strategy they a prefer using and how
they use it. Completing Chapter 6 workbook pages in the Homework Book I gave you at Back to School Night
and working with your flashcards daily will help. Please continue to work on addition facts nightly as we will be doing the same here each day.
Science: Your child is bringing home his/her Science Journal this week to share with you all he/she learned about out insect study. Enjoy reading through it together, write a comment in the book if you wish, and help your child remember to bring it back to school. We will continue to add to the Science Journal throughout the year.
We are continuing our nutritional study learning about the food groups. Each week we will take a look at a different food group. Ask your child what groups we have learned about and how they are incorporating them into their diet. Thank you for completing and sending in your home nutrition survey. We had fun reviewing it.

Hi Room 6 Families,
Exciting News: These amazingly fabulous first graders in Room 6 filled up our Class Incentive
Chart! Can you believe it? I think they did it in world record time! The class took a vote and having a pj party was the celebration of choice. So please help your child remember to wear his/her pj to school on Wednesday, September 11. It is okay if your child doesn't want to wear pj's. He/she can still be part of the celebration.

Please contact the school office for more information. I would love to schedule volunteers at Back to School Night but we need this completed first!
Morning Drop Off: Thank you for helping your child during this time. As a reminder, our school opens at 7:30, with supervision only on the lower playground. At 7:40, the supervisors will walk the children up to the upper playground to play until school starts at 7:55.

Welcome!
I am so excited to start my 14th year here at Rio del Mar teaching first grade in Room 6. It is going to be another fabulous year and I can't wait to meet everyone on Monday.
Welcome to my Room 6 blog too! My hope is that by reading this blog each week, you will get a peak into the upcoming fun and learning that will be happening. We love sharing what's going on and this is our way to do so since you all can't be here with us!
We will start off the school year with the Humpty Dumpty poem which will help us learn how to be safe, follow rules and make good choices while here at school. We will also enjoy The Cat Sat, our first story in our Houghton Mifflin reading series. This story will help us with the concept of beginning, middle and end in a story. In math, we will work with patterns, counting to 100 and writing numbers the first grade way. Ask your child about how to write our first grade "purple green" first grade number and learn for yourself.
Please look for the very important information packet from the office your child is bringing home. There are many forms to be filled out and returned.
Also please read our First Grade Information Sheet which will answer many of your questions about first grade procedures.
Looking forward to a great school year,
Mrs. Robinson

Welcome to my Room 6 blog too! My hope is that by reading this blog each week, you will get a peak into the upcoming fun and learning that will be happening. We love sharing what's going on and this is our way to do so since you all can't be here with us!
We will start off the school year with the Humpty Dumpty poem which will help us learn how to be safe, follow rules and make good choices while here at school. We will also enjoy The Cat Sat, our first story in our Houghton Mifflin reading series. This story will help us with the concept of beginning, middle and end in a story. In math, we will work with patterns, counting to 100 and writing numbers the first grade way. Ask your child about how to write our first grade "purple green" first grade number and learn for yourself.
Please look for the very important information packet from the office your child is bringing home. There are many forms to be filled out and returned.
Also please read our First Grade Information Sheet which will answer many of your questions about first grade procedures.
Looking forward to a great school year,
Mrs. Robinson
